This is completely unacceptable God love those translink workers, it must be petrifying working on public transport atm.
There’s the best of Irishness there as well. You wouldn’t get such attentive caringness from the British, and before anyone says anything, I’ve lived in England all my life, so I know.
It’s not a unionist/republican remark, just a perspective from living here.
The Irish on both sides have a better sense of community.

Very true. The only place I've seen anything like the Irish is in Liverpool (not all but a lot of people there) and that's prob cos the city was filled with Irish (and still is)

Do you mean terror related up here or in Dublin?

Northern English defo much nicer than southerners. I’ve found this when following football and going to various domestic and international matches. Southerners don’t seem to understand fan banter you would get with anyone else

I can’t get links to work today, was that the undercover cops on bikes in the Cathedral Quarter or something else?
I think there was someone lifted in the city hall area, someone mentioned another one so perhaps Cq too.

Mi5 is watching you 👀 😂
Can you imagine the knock on the door and interrogation.
Officer- so “Grifty” can you explain your code name and tell us who “BigMavis” is

Totally agree with you, it’s one thing we’re really good at and think we can all agree on this! It’s something positive that continues through all the generations too 🥰
